Title: On-line wagering system with programmable game entry cards
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 1988-09-16
Granted: 1993-01-27
Abstract: An on-line wagering system with programmable game entry cards including cards having on-card data storage for value tokens and data uniquely related to the player. The player cards are operable as payment means in which the tokens are spent and as play validation and play entry means in lieu of mark sense slips and printed validation receipts. Demographic player data uniquely related to the owner of the card is stored on the card and possibly in the central wagering system memory. This allows correlation of play entries with player demographics. A plurality of agent terminals in data communication with the central data processor interface between the central processor and the player cards. The agent terminals preferably also accept traditional mark sense entry slips and produce printed verification receipts, upon request.

Abstract: Display device comprising shaped guide plates (44) positively guiding the suspension rods (4) of viewing sheets (3) around a roller (8) when each suspension rod (4) is engaged by cradles (11) carried by electrically driven chains (10). A strap (50) which is rendered resilient by the inclusion therein of a spring (53) extends centrally down the rear of the device and prevents the successive suspension rods (4) from becoming detached from the cradles (11) in this region. A gate which includes a stop (55) is provided at the foot of ramps (5) upon which the rods (4) are stacked to ensure that the rods will not become bunched or otherwise entangled on the ramps (5) and that the cradles (11) will positively pick up only one suspension rod (4) at each passage past the gate. A time delay switch (56) is associated with a microswitch (41) and will close to bypass switch (41), after a predetemined interval of time, so that the drive of the device may re-start even if the power supply to the device had previously been switched off with the microswitch (41) in its open circuit position. Each rectangular display sheet (3) preferably comprises two layers which are secured to one another at the edges which coincide with the suspension rods (4) and along one of two longitudinal edges. The other edge is open except for two relatively short portions that are joined together at its opposite ends, whereby webs carrying indicia may be entered between the layers, by appropriate flexing, and will remain trapped therebetween by the short joined together edge portions of the two layers.

Title: Mixing of farinaceous material
IPC: A21C1/14
Filed: 1988-09-23
Granted: 1991-11-27
Abstract: A mixing element (18) for the mixing of farinaceous material, is arranged to rotate at different speeds during the development of the material. The power developed by the motor is arranged to be constant throughout as the whole of mixing process and the speed of the rotating element is decreased as the resistance to its motion, provided by the developing farinaceous material, increases. This characteristic, which is required for minimum power wastage, may be effected by the sensing of the resistance provided by the developing material.

Granted: 1993-09-29
Abstract: Des ségments d'ADN déplaçables à fonctions autonomes, appelés Eléments Régulateurs de Stérol (SRE'S) sont fusionnés avec des gènes structuraux hétérologues afin de conférer une capacité de régulation du stérol au gène hybride ainsi formé. Les gènes hybrides réagissent aux stérols en réduisant la production d'ARN messager. Les segments de SRE contiennent en tant que séquence primaire de nucléotides fonctionnels une séquence à 16 bp appelée séquence de répétition directe 2 isolée des régions 5' du gène récepteur humain de LDL. Les segments d'ADN contenant cette séquence de 16 nucléotides confèrent eux-aussi une capacité de régulation du stérol à des promoteurs déjà connus, tels que le promoteur HSV TK. D'autres séquences autonomes confèrent une capacité de promotion positive de la transcription à des gènes structuraux hétérologues sans conférer une réactivité au stérol. Des procédés d'utilisation de ces éléments de régulation génétique dans une multiplicité de modes de réalisation permettent de régler avec une haute précision des gènes hétérologues. D'autres procédés utilisent le SRE dans un essai de dépistage de médicaments capables de stimuler la cellule pour synthétiser les récepteurs LDL.

Granted: 1993-07-21
Abstract: This invention relates to processes and equipment for preparation and cooking of edible materials, particularly for the automatic slicing and deep drying of vegetables, especially potatoes, to form crisps. The procedure comprises the steps of forming unwashed and undried slices of the edible material, individually feeding the slices without washing and drying into a bath of hot cooking oil, when said slices subsequently float to the surface of the oil due to the formation of steam bubbles on the slices forcibly submerging the slices in said hot cooking oil for a further period in which cooking of the slices is substantially completed to give the slices a crisp consistency, and finally removing the cooked slices from the cooking oil and dipensing the cooked slices. The equipment comprises slicing means, a bath for containing hot cooking oil, heating means for maintaining the cooking oil at a required temperature, slice feeding means for individually feeding the unwashed and undried slices into said bath, and slice handling means for forcibly submerging slices and maintaining submersion of the slices and for finally removed cooked slices from the cooking oil and dispensing the cooked slices.
